“War of the Worlds” Supernatural moves more pieces around and starts to ramp up the tension between the various factions on the lookout for Jack. Jack’s disappearance last week is something of a curveball for Sam, Dean and Castiel who are working to deal with the fallout of this. Finding Jack is top priority but…

“Tombstone” Supernatural goes Wild West on a case that welcomes Castiel back into the fold and lets Dean celebrate the win that he wanted so badly last week. So far this season has been consumed by loss. Dean has been struggling to deal with losing his mother all over again at the same time he…

“Advanced Thanatology” Supernatural goes back to the tried and tested formula when Sam and Dean decide to go on a good old fashioned Ghost Hunt. Much of this episode could be placed pretty much anywhere in the 13 seasons of this show. This isn’t a bad thing as many long running shows have an agreed…

“The Big Empty” Closure and catharsis are the name of the game when Supernatural forces everyone to deal with their grief. Grief has defined this season so far in one way or another. Dean is mourning the loss of Castiel, Mary and even Crowley while Jack mourns the mother he never knew. The one person…

“Lost and Found” Supernatural begins its thirteenth season by picking up right where it left off following the birth of Lucifer’s child (Alexander Calvert).

“The Future” Supernatural prepares for the birth of Lucifer’s child as Sam and Dean try to figure out a way to make sure that the potential danger is removed. Kelly Kline being on the run protected by Dagon has been going on for what seems like forever but there also hasn’t been that much time…

“Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell” Supernatural takes Sam and Dean on a Hell Hound hunt as Lucifer tries to find a way to escape Crowley’s clutches and Castiel is presented with an opportunity.

“Family Feud” Supernatural picks up the Lucifer love child plot as the Winchesters hunt a ghost left over from a recovered shipwreck and Mary continues to work with the Men of Letters. One standing challenge that must come up a lot in the writers room is how to make a ghost hunt not feel derivative…

“Stuck in the Middle (With You)” Supernatural brings the Winchesters against a very powerful demon that turns out to be much more than they could have ever predicted. I’m aware that the description sounds like a fairly generic plot for this show and it definitely is but the execution of this made made it much…
